Rule utilitarianism, on the other hand, considers larger sets of actions rather than just individual acts.
Act utilitarianism means an act may be considered morally right even if it violates traditional notions of justice or individual rights. It evaluates actions separately, considering each one in terms of its effect on happiness or pleasure. Act utilitarianismfocuses on the consequences of individual actions and assesses them based on their expected utility or benefit.Act and rule utilitarianism are both forms of utilitarianism, a philosophical approach to morality that states an action is right if it produces the greatest good for the greatest number of people.
